About

Lacework operates as a comprehensive cloud security platform that specializes in protecting multi-cloud environments through advanced behavioral analysis and automation. The company's solution addresses the growing complexity of cloud infrastructure security by providing unified visibility and threat detection across Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform environments.

The platform's core technology centers around the Polygraph Data Platform, which collects and analyzes massive amounts of cloud activity data to establish behavioral baselines. This approach enables the system to detect anomalies and potential threats that traditional signature-based security tools might miss. The platform automatically correlates events across different cloud services and infrastructure components to provide comprehensive threat intelligence.

Lacework's behavioral analysis capabilities extend beyond basic monitoring to include automated compliance assessment and configuration management. The platform continuously evaluates cloud configurations against industry standards and regulatory requirements, including CIS benchmarks, PCI DSS, and SOC 2 frameworks. This automated approach helps organizations maintain compliance posture without manual intervention.

The solution provides several key security functions including vulnerability management, container security, and workload protection. Its agent-based monitoring collects detailed telemetry from cloud workloads while maintaining minimal performance impact. The platform also offers agentless scanning capabilities for comprehensive coverage of cloud assets and configurations.

Enterprise organizations across various industries rely on Lacework to secure their cloud transformation initiatives and maintain visibility as they scale their cloud operations. The platform particularly serves companies with complex multi-cloud architectures that require unified security management and automated threat response capabilities.

Lacework integrates with existing security operations workflows through APIs and supports popular DevOps tools and CI/CD pipelines. This integration approach allows security teams to incorporate cloud security findings into their existing incident response processes and enables development teams to address security issues early in the deployment lifecycle.
